Central Air

[drewpear]

does anyone use a central heating unit for their viv?

i was thinking about making one with a ceramic bulb, ceramic socket,
and a fan, in an appropriate enclosure, mounted on the outside of the viv,
blowing through a grate, with a thermostat.

i'm about to build a viv about 6ft x 2ft x 2ft and i'm concerned about stable temps

what you can do is get a low wattage ceramic bulb and then you can buy timers that are temperature based and will turn the ceramic off and on depending on your set temperature.
